Our client’s back conditioned worsened and resulted in complex regional pain syndrome following a failed back surgery. We successfully represented her at her hearing and she was awarded benefits by an Administrative Law Judge.
The Appeals Council then choose to review the decision of the Administrative Law Judge. The Appeals Council has the ability to review any ALJ decision and then reverse or affirm that decision. Our client’s decision was reviewed and remanded to an Administrative Law Judge and she had a second hearing where our attorney presented additional documentation of our client’s medical condition including doctor reports, medical evidence, and employer evaluations.
Our client received a second favorable decision and was awarded the benefits she deserved.
